DNA scientists claim that Cherokees are from the Middle East

[Peterski]

they have some x in altaic populations by siberia i think though.

No they don't have any.

Haplogroup x in natives is pretty distant from other x haplogroups.

But it is not East Asian.

Its altaic. Altaics are mixed east eurasian and ane by siberia.

It could be from ANE (Ancient North Eurasians), but ANE were generally Caucasoids.

They were not East Asians (they did not contribute any genes to modern East Asians).

By the way, mtDNA haplogroup C1 in Native Americans is probably also of ANE origin.

IIRC LDS Church ("Mormons") claim amerindians are an Israeli tribe or something.

Altaics are not full ANE people they are mixed East Eurasian. And many look east Easian. Haplogroup X comes from Caucasus area I think but It migrated and mixed with East Eurasian. So its subclade is not Caucasian. Would be like saying Haplogroup I is Middle eastern because its parent IJ came from the middle east. Altaics are populations unique to their own and Natives have some mixture with them although being predominantly east Eurasian. Just like in the X MTDNA profile kit of Kennewick.

Now if we compare proper caucasians they look nothing alike. Some altaic people look caucasian but closer you get to the east the more they look asian



This man is a chinese actor, he looks far closer to Native American than Caucasians

Guess I'm a mormon now.

ANE are caucasoids but mix.
It is not a real thing in 100%.

It is the same which was in Karelia?
Then it is rather Amerindian, cause in Karelia
it bears Amerindian au and Q husband'ary

“The Cherokees have lived in the Southeastern United States for over 10,000 years.Cherokees developed and cultivated corn, beans and squash – “the three sisters” – along with sunflowers and other crops.

Mexican natives domesticated corn and beans. Cherokees can thank Mexico's natives.
